  • I just bought Cake's lovely Steamroller frame, which came with a headset, BB and stem. My idea is to build it up into a full bike using bits sourced exclusively from members of the forum, so that like a recipient of a transplanted organ I can feel an intangible spiritual connectedness with all of you. My only constraint on the bits is that, with the exception of the tyres, I would like them to be silver, shiny silver if possible.

    I have a pair of serviceable pedals, a saddle, and an 18t EAI fixed cog, so in no particular order, what I need is:

    • Cranks
    • Chainring to go with Cranks
    • Wheels (rims, spokes, hubs separately will do)
    • Tyres n Tubes
    • Chain
    • Seatpost
    • Front brake (brake, cable, levers, pads)
    • Bars (pref risers)
    • Bar grips

    My budget for the build is £250. I'm not in a desperate hurry, so I'll give this experiment time to succeed - and I'll post pics of the build as it progresses.
